Enkele minuten geleden (20.05 u Belgische tijd) mocht Jack Soden van EPE de "Medal of Freedom" in ontvangst nemen van President Trump.

Een zonet gepubliceerde perstekst luidde als volgt:

"Rock an Roll star Elvis Pesley has been posthumously awarded the Medal Of Freedom, America's highest civilian honour, by President Donald Trump. Presley's velvety voice filled the White house briefly on Friday when a recording of his songs was played at a ceremony hosted by the president to honour the king of rock 'n roll".
